Description

Explore a foundational text in the field of anthropology with Sex and Repression in Savage Society by Bronislaw Malinowski. Part of the Routledge Classics series, this work offers a unique look into the social structures and human behaviors observed by one of the most important figures in the discipline. During the First World War, Malinowski lived among the people of the Trobriand Islands, off the eastern coast of New Guinea. By speaking their language and participating in their daily activities, he developed the method of participant-observation. This approach changed how researchers conduct ethnographic studies and provides the framework for the insights found in this book. In this volume, Malinowski applies his direct experiences from the Trobriand Islands to investigate the study of sexuality. He examines the complex issues of eroticism and the social factors that influence them. This book is an essential read for students and professionals interested in the history of anthropology, sociology, and the study of human social behavior.
